Torc Waterfall, Killarney National Park

Just a few miles from Ladies View and the Lower Lake in the same Park is this splendid waterfall. At the base of the Torc mountain the Owengarriff River drains from the Devil's Punchbowl corrie lake on Mangerton Mountain. The highest fall, shown here, is a 20m drop, with the whole cascade being 110m.

Just a hundred metres further down from the main snow falls (See next photo) . Here it joined by yet more water from another small falling stream. The river Doe from here on will now take a more sedate route after just a mile or so of smaller tumbles.

The fourth waterfall on this great walk. Again, in reality not a single fall but a series of them.
Beezley Falls on the River Doe are the first to be found on the downward (return) leg of this walk. Situated in the 'Kingsdale Valley' which is another impressive steep way with narrow twisty paths.
Enjoy full size.

Ingleton waterfalls trail: Hollybush Spout view

Hollybush Spout is a waterfall on the River Twiss and is situated between Pecca Falls and Thornton Force on the Ingleton Waterfall Walk. The waterfall is well named with the surrounding rock squeezing the river above a steep drop to create the water spout.

The second waterfall that one encounters on this walk.
Hollybush Spout is a waterfall on the River Twiss and is situated between Pecca Falls and Thornton Force on the Ingleton Waterfall Walk. The waterfall is well named with the surrounding rock squeezing the river above a steep drop to create the water spout. The yellow tint in this water is caused by peat picked up whilst flowing down from the higher hills.

A spectacular look at this waterfall in flood. This is the river Twiss in the Yorkshire Dales and is seen by taking the 'Ingleton Waterfall trail'.
Another to be enjoyed full screen.
Ingleton waterfalls trail: Thornton Force

The third waterfall encountered on this incredible trail: Thornton Force is arguably the most spectacular of the waterfalls seen on the impressive Waterfalls Walk at Ingleton in the Yorkshire Dales.
This is a textbook case of geological unconformity, the river plunging over a cliff of horizontal strata Great Scar Limestone which overlays much older Ordovician Ingleton slates, and is a direct result of the Craven Fault which dominates the scenery of the western dales.

A delightful little cascade here as seen on our trail walk in March. This was just near its large neighbour Thornton Force. See pip.
Keep safe this weekend.
Visions of Park Bridge: The Weir in Summer

A view here of this, what we used to call 'The waterfall' in the country park of Park Bridge. Always a pleasant sight, especially in this lighting. many times I have seen people taking a quick picnic sat on the rocks on the left here. On our return trip today, we passed some boys taking a quick dip in here in their underclothes. Not a thing that I would do, as in years passed, this was one of the most polluted rivers in this area.
See too, my alternative views and times here.
(ps -this is my second posting as I accidentally deleted this from here some minutes back.)
Ingleton waterfalls trail: Snow Falls

The fifth and last waterfall on this great walk. Again, in reality not a single fall but a series of them.
The Snow Falls on the River Doe are the second real falls to be found on the downward (return) leg of this splendid walk just after the impressive Baxenghyll Gorge (yet to come on here). These falls are often said to be the prettiest falls on this route as the water often looks like white snow locked in the river. The adjacent photo is taken from just a few more metres further down the river.
As usual, enjoy full size.

Ingleton waterfalls trail: Baxenghyll Gorge

Actually the fifth water event on this trail, Baxenghyll Gorge is a dramatic steep-sided gorge on the River Doe, The gorge contains a number of waterfalls, none of which seem to be named. My view here taken looking up-river from the high bridge that is suspended across this gorge, approx 60ft (18 m) above the river.
PiPs = downriver (adjacent photo) and four of the previous waterfalls.

Beezley Falls fence

Another look at these falls, this time showing part of the narrow trail that edges the river at so many points. As you can see a fence is sorely needed here. This trail runs up one river valley before returning via another and all along the path meanders, sometimes quite steeply up and down,
Best viewed full screen. PiPs
HFF, enjoy the weekend.
A dash of Winter

As another bout of cold weather descends on my home here in NW England, I take the opportunity again to walk my local paths along with my trusty Nikon. This path which seems, for 99% of the year mud bound, is now frozen and has a new layer of white powder snow. The small waterfall, S-curve and lovely green boughs of the pines all go together to make this almost a painting.
ps best viewed in full size.

This beautiful scenic valley near 'Church Stretton', Shropshire is not only a delight to walk but also to photograph. Here is one of the many smaller waterfalls.
